Vantaggi

There is not a lot of pros to working at BDO, I would suggest working at a different firm, see below for reasons.

Svantaggi

Do you want to be treated like you are working at a big 4 and also do the hours of a big 4 but then not have that on your resume, then BDO is for you! Here in the Houston office, there are staff auditors that are working 85 hours a week. It is pretty typical to work a nice 70 hour week and then have a manager who keeps asking about stuff. My firm was originally UHY and got bought out by BOD at the end of 2014. For UHY I would probably leave a 4 star review. However, when BDO showed up the first day of January, they pretty much immediately left a bad taste in everybody's mouth including even partners. Nobody in the Houston office is happy and emphatically and universally hate BDO. I would never suggest anybody work here.

Here's an idea....you see a problem? Be part of a solution. Speak to your managing partner or speak to me., but speak.

Vantaggi

Not everyone will be your person, but the ones who are, you'll keep them for life. The intensity of the work forges real bonds. When you go through the grind together, those friendships/mentorship stick long after you've moved on. Same goes for upper management.

Svantaggi

During busy season (approx Jan to April), 40 hours is a floor, not a ceiling, and that's pretty standard for firms of this type. On the consulting side, you're constantly juggling multiple clients with overlapping deadlines, so if time management isn't your strong suit, you'll feel it fast. Compensation is solidly middle-of-the-road; don't expect it to wow you.
